"The very notion of transmitting confidential tax data - from Social Security and employer identification numbers to financial information - to any foreign country, even Canada, borders on the reprehensible at best, and is treasonous at worst," Caroll fumed."

Of course after having your bank account hacked, the IRS will tell you that's no excuse for your check that you wrote to them bouncing. Time to implement the flat tax now. What's the point in getting an accounting degree if this is the way we will operate as a nation.

What is the point in getting '*' degree if every job will be outsourced to a 3rd world country?

Bingo! This issue is going to end up boiling over, I can see this one coming. Either something is going to be done by the government, or there is going to be some serious civil unrest before this is all over.

Amen brother. What is the point. We are now outsourcing accounting, I.T. jobs by the boatload, and cutsomer service positions by the tens of thousands. I'm really concerned that we will be a victim of our own success because without a solid manufacturing base and with the service industry being exported one job at a time, just what the hell will we do for economic growth?????

Good question. Course, the standard line is 'SHut up you lazy American, it's lazy people like you and UNIONS that caused the downfall of this country!'

No mention of the greedy corporations and CEO's having equal hand in said destruction.

If you made a lot of money you'd just end up throwing it away on useless things anyway.<> Who is John Galt?

Just wait until a few of these third-world countries nationalize all that stuff and our corporations are left holding a big old empty bag.

They'll just go running to the government for a bailout. They'll get it too.

You have my sympathy. I too used to live in the third world, er, the Bay Area. My advice is to get out of there as soon as you can.

Where's the value added here?

Wouldn't it make more sense to streamline the accounting laws to uncomplicate the process rather than export the inefficiency to foreign accountants?

Nothing against the Indians, they are smart people and good workers, but this is crummy!

I think that should read greedy and traitorous. I still think back to all the secrets Bubba let all those companies sell to China and it burns my butt.

I know I don't bother to make much anymore. It all goes to utterly useless things.

Like taxes to help India or China's economy and support damnocrat causes.

Screw em. I'll stay home again this year.
